Testing 01
Featured in the video below is Current Productions' film which documents Luke Dwyer and myself putting two of the outfits to the test.
Synopsis:
This film is a collaboration between Abigail Burgess and Current Productions. It captures the initial trial prototype garments created by Burgess in their intended environment and their technical capabilities. The documentation aims to capture the raw beauty of nature and feature this in sync with the footage of the garments. This project aims to be a snapshot of the experience of skiers and snowboarders, using the footage to document their experience in the clothing.
